What's in This Episode?Feature/Art Updates!We discuss Christmas and holiday features, themes, increased ad views, partnering up with Facebook to bring in new players, what exactly a "vacation gauntlet" is, and talk more about other things that are on their way!

Special Guests!A couple familiar voices (Viking Jacob and Viking Nate) jump into the recording room to share some stories of what's coming up, what it was like working on holiday features, and why we doubled-over laughing when the snowball feature was first tested and released.

As mentioned in the episode, we'll be taking a quick break for the holiday season, so we want to wish you a nice warm and happy break! The Update will be returning in 2017!

Happy Holidays!!! I know you guys must have got a lot of postcards recently for the holiday season and are unable to read them all, just making mine was received and that I didn't send it to the wrong place! See ya in 2017!~

Can we please get animated Christmas lights for homes and the trees. I like them blinking and twinkling. Please let this theme run a long time, I don't have enough money or coins to buy them all right now. Stuff comes out so fast I can't afford it. I only have 150,000 so it will take awhile to build up. Wish the ads gave better coins. I just get between 2,000 an 8,000

I love the ads and wish it would be unlimited forever. You know one game I play for every how many ads they give one cash point. Would be so nice to get one yocash for every 50 ads or however many more you want to set. The food ads are my fav. They make me so hungry .

Thank you all BVG team for another wonderful year..I missed a lot ..But I did get my Christmas...So thankful to you all.. Praying 2017 we all have a great year...I don't know how to add Pictures lol..But I still would love a Antique Windsor Chair ...https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/seati ... or-chairs/ < Link So sorry not know how to post Picture

Ha! It was me concerned you were throwing darts at my postcards. I was going to send you a bulls eye postcard but Christmas obligations and expectations that I have totally placed on myself are kicking my butt. So I didn't get a chance. Thanks for all of the fun this holiday. Great stuff going on!

I thought it was! No worries on the bulls eye (great idea though!) - Christmas gets hectic. We're working on joining the 21st century and creating a spreadsheet with received postcards anyway... No more throwing things or taking them down once a month! Thanks for all the postcards so far!
